Well, I'm 11 days post operative now, and still in a lot of pain. I guess I thought the recovery process would be like this ... I would be a little bit better every day until ... Viola! ... I was pain free.
But I am finding this journey of healing to be a lot like the journey of life. We may have a day or two of smooth sailing ... but then the storms begin and we may get blown sideways or backwards for awhile ... or the winds die down and we just drift along in a sea of sameness.
But it is all a journey none the less. And each day is a new day to embrace. So we sail on ... doing the hard work required ... while keeping a watchful and hopeful eye on the horizon.
And someday ... hopefully soon .... we will arrive at our destination ... which is a port full of wholeness and health ... from the physical ... spiritual ... mental ... or emotional pain we are working to heal.
